Embrace Families’ Annual Ballroom Dance Competition “Dance Dream & Inspire”


Local Business Leaders Raise Funds for Youth in Foster Care

Embrace Families is inviting Central Floridians to a special night of dancing, food, and fun on Saturday, May 6.

The nonprofit’s annual “Dance Dream & Inspire” competition pairs five local business leaders with professional ballroom dancers to perform in a high-spirited event that raises money for youth in foster care. Funds from the signature event will support families in crisis, help young adults transition to independent living, cover childcare costs, and provide tutoring, along with other supplemental services designed to assist struggling local families.

Individual tickets start at $50 for upper balcony seating. Lower balcony tickets range from $175 to 500 and include access to a pre-event reception. Sponsorship opportunities start at $1,500. More information, including how to purchase tickets, can be found online.

This year’s competitors are: Sarah King (Darden Restaurants), Lourdes Mola (Lourdes Mola Solutions), Negar Sharifi (Assured Partners Insurance), John Stevens (Florida Blue) and Dominic Watson (Embrace Families).
